Wow, I can't believe it. We're already in the middle of the 3rd nine weeks. The time is really flying by now. Pretty soon we will be in the 4th quarter and it will be over. I can't believe the time has gone by.

In reading and ELA, students are taking an assessment on our Daily Language Arts (Reading) 4 Today. This will always be completed on the Monday after unless we do not have school. They also have a sheet that lists what the assessment consists of, which are the skills from weeks 5 and 6. We will be focusing on weeks 7 and 8 this week. The assessments on Monday, Feb 28th, will focus on rhyming words, capitalization, adjectives, contractions, and plural nouns. We will also continue with our reading of James and the Giant Peach chapters . We will text on those chapters Friday, February 25. We will cover different skills as we go through the chapters.

With writing, students are working on introductory paragraphs with a hook, thesis, and 3 short details. This week, we will incorporate the body paragraphs with the use of transitions and text evidence. In math, we are working on plotting fractions on the number line, fractions greater than one (improper fractions), measurement to the nearest quarter of an inch (1/4, 1/2, and 3/4), and mixed numbers. In science, we are working on the soil unit. We will not test this week but they will have quizzes throughout. Remember, science and social studies are always open notes.

Below, you will find information from the district and pictures from our Valentine's activities.
